Move LA's 5th Annual Transportation Conversation

Move LA is staging its annual “transportation conversation” with state and local leaders and the ever-expanding business-labor-enviro-civic-community coalition advocating for transit and good development. This event at Union Station on Feb. 1 also includes a conversation with LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa’s Transit Corridors Cabinet in their first meeting with the public. Move LA’s first conversation in 2008 launched the Measure R sales tax for transportation.

The morning will include discussion of how to fund publc transportation, and what is needed to make transit real and fair in LA County.

The afternoon will be a presentation from the new Transit Corridors Cabinet, and responses from a panel of advocates, developers, planners, and academics.
